Abstract
This paper addresses the significant problem of dangerous driving and road accidents in Mauritius by constantly monitoring the driver’s behaviour and by detecting dangerous driving patterns which could lead to road accidents. The two dangerous driving patterns that were monitored and detected are speeding and overtaking on solid white line. When these patterns are detected, the driver, as well as authorities are alerted. A gyroscope sensor and Global Positioning System (GPS) sensor, connected to a Raspberry Pi, were used to gather data about the motion of the vehicle. An algorithm known as Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) was used to identify where overtaking occurs in real time. The vehicle’s speed was obtained from the GPS sensor. These data were sent to a server for processing. The server would subsequently decide whether the detected motion was an offence or not and the client device would be informed in order to alert the driver of an offence being committed.
